I shoveled 8 yards of compost this weekend. That’s my church
Every day it gets harder and harder to convince myself I need the “career” I chose
Same boat my friend.
Yeah, but I’m starting to get the feeling that the career I chose doesn’t need me, either. Restaurant business, 47 years old, Los Angeles… They don’t really like “old” people like me in the front of the house in LA haha.
Seriously, though, like I said, I do think that my “I really do not care if you hire me” vibe is very noticeable, no matter how hard I try to hide it. Plus, I’m too fucking honest about whatever they ask me. I always have been, but back when I was younger and ripped and good-looking and shit, it was “charming.” Now, I get the sense that they’re like,”Oh, errrrr, um, I’m not too sure about this dude…” haha. It doesn’t help at all when we sit down and they fold their hands and say,”So tell me about yourself! What’ve you been up to???” and I’m like,”Well, I grow weed and I love doing that and my girlfriend has a real job and makes real money and I don’t think she even cares if I work or not and yeah I’ll work five days a week if you really need me to but I’d prefer to work maybe three or four days a week.
But only days.
I won’t work nights.” haha!
I mean, it’s not that bad, I really do try, but probably not as hard as I could. And certain things just don’t occur to me to not say during the course of an interview. Like I interviewed at this fucking wine bar a while back and I told them I don’t like drinking wine haha. Which is true, I don’t, I prefer beer and bourbon. But Jesus Christ, man, don’t fucking say that during your interview AT A WINE BAR.
Or, like, I got an interview at a dispensary a couple weeks ago, it was for a delivery position, which I thought sounded pretty fun. If nothing else, at least I’d just be in my car pretty much and not dealing with, like, managers in my face all the time and shit. Meeting the people who get weed delivered sounded pretty interesting, too. I actually wanted this job, is what I’m saying. So I went into this interview and the dude started asking me questions and I answered them all friendly and shit, but then, I dunno, I couldn’t help it, I went off on a serious RANT about how much I hate Girl Scout Cookies and Wedding Cake and every GSC derivative and how everything in every dispensary sucks. I don’t know why! It just came spilling outta my mouth, it wasn’t like he asked me,”So what strains do you like?” or anything like that at all. It had nothing to do with anything. I just couldn’t help it.
Dude went,”I… I kinda like Girl Scout Cookies…” I knew right then I wasn’t getting that job.
Anyway, yeah, I dunno. Maybe I’m just getting too weird for gainful employment or something, I really don’t know. But the shit y’all see me writing here? That’s exactly like I am in “real life,” too haha. It kinda works on OG, but I don’t think it works in the real world at all haha…
I dunno man, around here folks can’t find people to work ANY jobs, every place is short staffed so I feel like if you’ve got a pulse and half a brain you could cop a job, maybe you’re just growing into “east coast weird” instead of “west coast weird” we’d be happy to have you, I’ve got a Red Sox hat with your name on it boss (cue minitiger’s playful meltdown)
start a youtube channel where you review shit and do rants. id be your first sub
lucky badtard! i got lucky today and got to read the other half of the bah smoke report that i startet yesterday, but have been watching baseball religiously like every begining of the season, we got the team this year, i predict freddy hits a walk off of jansen. of course he hit his first dinger off the braves anyways dont get a job bro, read the entire overgrow tjats a wayyy better use of your time, or maybe get a job on a weed farm? gather skills and shit?
Yeahhhhhh, man, they say that about LA, too, that every place is hiring and they’re all under-staffed and shit. Maybe some places are, but nowhere that I’m qualified to work haha. It certainly seems like restaurants aren’t having any issues finding people, anyway.
I just got out of bed, so I’ll refrain from commenting on that.
Haha, a lot of people have told me to do that. It bugs me how every single one of those videos starts off,”Hey, guys…” If I do start a YouTube channel, I will never, ever, EVER start any of my videos with,”Hey, guys…”
Ohhhhhh, look who’s coming around to Freddy Freeman My girl actually said the same thing yesterday, that’d be pretty cool if it happened.
you know im just playing, i respect your dedication to the brooklyn… er … los angeles dodgers
your asking for it Legs…
i cant stop myself. i deserve whatever comes next
Yes, he is. But I fucking draaaaaaaaank yesterday, moving pretty slow today, so he’ll get a brief reprieve…
you know i kid because i love @minitiger but ill stop. for real though, move to VT lets get a grow license and leave the corpo rat race behind forever!
we’ll go broke a different way
Get a grow license and leave the rat race behind? Seriously? Haha! That’s just another rat race. Swear to gawd, I’m gonna go full-on “Ralph Waldo Emerson” on everybody and go camp by a lake for a couple years and write.
Or was that Thoreau?
Doesn’t matter, I hate camping anyway haha.
leave the rat race for a squirrel race, call it a “lateral career trajectory” if it hits better. haha.
Gotta hop on the “minititger’s reviews are the best” bandwagon. That BAH sounds like so much fun
It IS. It’s such good weed. Like I said, I wish all of y’all could swing by and blaze some. Or anybody haha. A few weeks back, I was like,”I don’t understand! Nobody wants to come over and hang out!” and my girl was like,”It’s 11am. And it’s Tuesday.” And I squinted my eyes and thought about it for a second and was like,”Oh. Really? It’s Tuesday today?”
But yeah, dude, if you have any of those BAH seeds, I say plant them. Good weed for sure. I’m gonna start getting into the C. Gold x DE #1 today, the Dragon Energy-leaning pheno, and start researching that one in earnest, just so I can write that review. That’s my plan for the week haha…
oh yeah 100% of youtube videos do start that way haha!!
in my heart i wanted jansen to ace his first close at dodger stadium but now that he did that, that’s it
you have me cracking the fuck up, good story dude and if you don’t need to work, why would you consider getting a job? stop wasting time thinking about jobs and shit and focus on growing (great advice i know)
Happy happy 4/20 y’all!
I had to work today… and I thought of you @minitiger.
I know, absolutely know for a fact everyone around me today knew I wanted nothing to do with them lol
That and I reeked of StrawBerry Temple all day
